at least we won our only recent SB appearance………..

what exactly has the patriots done the past 10 years???

Fact of the matter remains we have come to foxboro and beat the pants off your team the last 3 playoff games, if it weren’t for lee evans joe would have 2 rings instead of just 1

All of you are absolutely right by the way, you know a heck of a lot more about drafting players than a two time super bowl champion GM and ex Hall of Fame player.

After all you play Madden.

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 18:20:02 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330832There are going to be a lot of moves on the day of the draft. I think there are multitudes of teams that may move up or down. That’s what makes this years draft so interesting. You just never know who wants one of the four quarterbacks, or defensive backs or even offensive lineman. “Win NOW”………. all the owners are getting old.

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 18:08:29 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330800One would think that any or all of the Seahawks, Patriots, and Broncos would be more likely trade partners since, historically, the Ravens have completed more trades with all of them than the 49ers.

Don’t read too much into the Harbaugh connection. We’ve made only one trade with SF since the team came to Baltimore.

1. Only quarterback to start and win a playoff game in each of his first five seasons
2. Most road playoff wins by a quarterback: 6
3. Most touchdowns in a postseason: 11 (tied with Joe Montana and Kurt Warner)
4 Most touchdowns without an interception in a postseason: 11 (tied with Joe Montana)
5. First quarterback to have a passer rating over 100 in all four games of a single postseason.
6. After only five years Flacco already has more road playoff wins than any other QB in the HISTORY of the NFL

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:59:47 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330782This idea that Ozzie has lost his touch in drafting well is such a myth. I’d like to stack up the Ravens’ draft choices over the last 4 years or so against the other top teams in the league and see how many they’ve missed on compared to the Ravens.

However, they also had drafted Torrey Smith, Dennis Pitta, Arthur Jones, Kelechi Osemele, and Jimmy Smith.

The bad does not outweigh the good any more than on the Patriots, Seahawks, Eagles, Broncos, or 49ers.

–
The GMs that put together the current Seahawks and 49ers rosters are currently the best. Those teams have been built to be in the Super Bowl appearance hunt for the next several years until either the law or contract demands rip those teams apart. I do not see the current Ravens’ roster fitting that mold. Plus you cannot deny how Kraft and Elway made the Patriots and Broncos better by free agency alone this offseason. In any event, this is a key draft for the Ravens.

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:15:55 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330674This story has nothing to do with Ozzie’s intent to move up or down.

It’s just a simple fact and pretty well known around the league that Ozzie isn’t set in stone about picking in the first round and will entertain all offers.

The other good GMs in the league are smart to know who they can call if and when a player they like slips.

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:03:51 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330653Which basically means none or very few teams have called. And the ravens are trying to inflate the price/interest in their pick.

Why would any team be honest to the media and public about their intentions and assets leading up to a draft? Makes no sense. It’s all talk. Don’t believe it.

Colbert and Tomlin started with some questionable drafts. And I am a Steelers fan saying that.

How cute the love for The Pied Piper for the lemmings in Baltimore. It eliminates the need for the fans to think and it shows.

I don’t see how the Ravens were condidered successful in doing this in the past. In 2010 they traded out of the first and took Sergio Kindle and Terrence Cody. Cody has been a career backup and did Kindle ever play a down? Its still early to judge 2012 but Courtney Upshaw (whom they selected in the second after trading away their first) isn’t scaring anyone.

Wed, 30 Apr 2014 16:32:37 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2257323#comment-3330539If Taylor Lewan, Clinton-Dix, Eric Ebron, or Zach Martin are available at #17 the Ravens should pick one of them up.

Fortunately, Ozzie has usually been successful when trading back.

Unfortunately, I may sit through another 1st Round draft, only to not see the Ravens pick at all.
